| Abstract | Local iterated function systems are an important generalisation of the standard
(global) iterated function systems (IFSs). For a particular class of mappings, their fixed
points are the graphs of local fractal functions and these functions themselves are known
to be the fixed points of an associated Read-Bajactarevi’c operator. This paper establishes
existence and properties of local fractal functions and discusses how they are computed.
In particular, it is shown that piecewise polynomials are a special case of local fractal
functions. Finally, we develop a method to compute the components of a local IFS from
data or (partial differential) equations.
